We show that for an $L^2$ drift $b$ in two dimensions, if the Hardy norm of $\text{div }b$ is small, then the weak solutions to $\Delta u+b\cdot\nabla u=0$ have the same optimal H\"older regularity as in the case of divergence-free drift,…
It is well known that when the nonlinearity is convex, the Hamilton-Jacobi PDE admits a unique semi-convex weak solution, which is the viscosity solution. In this paper, motivated by problems arising from spin glasses, we show that if the…

We study the rate of convergence in periodic homogenization for convex Hamilton--Jacobi equations with multiscales, where the Hamiltonian $H=H(x, y, p): \mathbb{R}^n \times \mathbb{T}^n \times \mathbb{R}^n \to \mathbb{R }$ depends on both…
